Doctor Who - just watched this this year and I love this show. I'm finally caught up through season 5 (of the new series anyway). Tends to be on the silly / sarcastic side of things as well. Seems I enjoy that with my sci-fi.
I watched a couple episodes, and found it TOO silly and sarcastic. Plus hasn't the show been going off and on for like twenty years or something?
It depends a lot on which episode you watch. Some are very silly, some less so. Which Doctor was it? The first couple of episodes of the new series are not fantastic, but it gets better.
Torchwood - spinoff of Dr. Who. This one is good, but I'm not all the way through the first season yet. More serious in tone, but still good. Heard that the first season is slow, but that the second and movie are much much better.
I might have to look into that one. Still the time travel sort of thing that Dr. Who has?
Torchwood is much more influenced by American television, and it takes all the sex and violence that the creators of Doctor Who had to keep pent up and unleashed it with only half-good wrapping. There are some very good aspects to it, but on the whole it is disappointing. That said, it gets better towards the end.
I think I may pick Fringe up and try it again. It didn't pull me in fast enough when it premiered.
I am impressed with Fringe.
Have you watched Alias?

FWIW, Angel is a much better character on his own show than he was on Buffy. *NM*

I never liked him because he was a vampire sleeping with the Slayer.
